Battle Brothers v1.5.0.15b

Battle Brothers is a turn-based tactical RPG that places you in command of a mercenary company in a gritty, low-power, medieval fantasy world. As the leader, you have the freedom to decide your path, choosing where to go, whom to hire or fight, which contracts to accept, and how to train and equip your men in a procedurally generated open-world campaign. The challenge lies in guiding your company through bloody battles to achieve victory.

The game is divided into two main components: a strategic world map and a tactical combat layer. On the world map, you can travel freely to take on contracts for coin, discover places worth looting, pursue enemies, or visit towns to resupply and recruit new members. This is also where you manage, level up, and equip your Battle Brothers. When engaging a hostile party, the game transitions to a tactical map for detailed turn-based combat.

Key features of Battle Brothers include:

- Managing a medieval mercenary company in a procedurally generated open world.
